A Party, A Meeting and a Near-Miss

Gathering / Conference

The Vampires visit a party in London to meet a friend of a friend who has been receiving odd messages about being called a "Bloodsucker."   Understanding her, Isabella's, situation and that of her hot-headed Anarch Master Duke's plan to get revenge. Calming things down, just about, to hear more.   All on New Year's Eve.

An Independent Group of vampires arrive at a party in London to meet the Ghoul Isabella who has been receiving odd threats from an unknown group of people. The party itself is taking place in a more arty-rundown part of the City. Hearing her story, and these odd threats, they begin to leave and remove her when Her Master, the Anarch Vampire Duke, arrives later. Duke quickly becomes upset with the Vampires assuming they are working for the Camarilla.   Tempers begin to flare up from Duke as the group is offering to protect Isabella as he sees it as his duty for her. Nearly reaching a boiling point, the shouting got louder as the more Masquerade-loose Duke in unable to calm down until challenged directly.   Moving back into the apartment building, here Isabella receives a text message. In the text, it states that Duke has until midnight to arrive at a specific location, otherwise they will release all the information they have about both her and Duke.
